Looks like there is hope to curtail City of Yes.

The community council should have a say before developers start a project. I’m sure the building on 79 st in Middle Village in the block of st Margaret was rushed thru. That block is right off metropolitan Av with one and two family homes. In fact it is adjacent to a small one family home. It is an eyesore and doesn’t fit in with the block. Parking is now more than ever a nightmare. Development has to be mindful of neighborhood integrity. We moved into a neighborhood with one and two family homes homes for a reason. Development has to be mindful of that.

Good luck, The City of Yes poses an existential threat to neighborhoods like Middle Village

We do not want City of Yes. Please save our neighborhoods.

We are going to post this just one more time.

The MTA has not approached ANY property owner to acquire land for the IBX. They are still in the environmental review stage. The draft report is expected to be released by the end of the year, then there will be hearings focused on the findings. The report will explain which properties would need to be acquired to facilitate construction.

There is currently NO money for the project past the design phase. Property acquisition comes much later. Please stop posting rumors. They harm the community and local businesses.
